1. An insertable cooling device configured to be disposed in a receptacle for receiving contents, the insertable cooling device comprising: a first portion having an opening for inserting cold contents into the insertable cooling device, the first portion including a plurality of ribs, the plurality of ribs forming a channel between each of the plurality of ribs; and a second portion connected to the first portion, the second portion having a plurality of tack-offs on a bottom surface, wherein the plurality of tack-offs increase a load capacity of the second portion by allowing a deformation around the plurality of tack-offs, thereby reducing a stress on the second portion, which accommodates at least one food and beverage contents; wherein the cold contents inserted through the opening of the first portion are located within an interior of the insertable cooling device to deliver refrigeration to an interior of the receptacle, such that cool air from the insertable cooling source circulates within the interior of the receptacle above and below the insertable cooling source. 2. The insertable cooling source of claim 1, wherein the first portion is configured to extend across at least a portion of a side surface of the receptacle. 3. The insertable cooling source of claim 1, wherein the cool air circulates between the plurality of ribs in the channels underneath the contents placed onto the platform, and a between a plurality of ribs located on a rear surface. 4. The insertable cooling source of claim 1, wherein the first portion and the second portion are formed as an integral structure. 5. The insertable cooling source of claim 1, further comprising: an indentation in the first portion that is configured to be used as a handle. 6. The insertable cooling device of claim 1, further comprising: a third portion, the third portion including a third plurality of projections configured to extend across at least a portion of the side surface of the receptacle and face the first plurality of projections. 7. An insert configured to be disposed in a cooler, the insert comprising: a bottom surface, the bottom surface having a plurality of feet configured to engage an interior floor surface of the cooler, the plurality of feet creating a space between the bottom surface and the interior floor surface of the cooler to allow cool air from the insert to pass therebetween;a back surface residing proximate a first side wall of the cooler when the insert is disposed within the cooler, the back surface including a plurality of projections on both a front side and a back side;a cooling surface having a top end and a bottom end, the cooling surface including a plurality of ribs continuously extending from the top end to the bottom end, wherein a portion of the plurality of ribs form a platform for receiving contents placed within the cooler, the portion of the plurality of ribs being parallel to the interior floor surface of the cooler; anda plurality of tack-offs, the plurality of tack-offs increasing a load capacity of the insert by allowing a deformation around the plurality of tack-offs, thereby reducing a stress on the cooling surface. 8. The insert of claim 7, wherein the insert is integrally formed as a single component to be placed within the cooler. 9. The insert of claim 7, wherein the opening includes a threaded surface for threadably securing a lid to cover an opening. 10. The insert of claim 7, wherein cool air circulates in a plurality of channels between the plurality of ribs underneath the contents placed onto the platform. 11. The insert of claim 10, further comprising: an integral handle formed by an indentation of the cooling surface located proximate the top end of the cooling surface also indicates the maximum fill line for cold contents.
